A bra is a unique item of women's clothing.wardrobe, and, mind you, one of the youngest items of women's clothing. And the best thing is that no one will encroach on our exclusive right to wear bras: men and children don't need them unless necessary. But perhaps that is why almost all the creators of this exclusively feminine attire are men. Forbidden fruit, as we know, is sweet. The trendsetters in the field of lingerie are also men. And the stereotype of a fashionable and beautiful bra was also created by them. Yes, men love with their eyes. And they are incredibly pleased to contemplate a lady in a foam of lace that covers only the nipples. Let's agree that lace is erotic, and breasts falling out of a corset are sexy. But these "learned men" of fashion should try to walk around all day in their, so to speak, developments. Although, let's be honest, we ourselves often become the cause of discomfort caused by a bra. Or rather, our elementary ignorance. For example, do you know how to choose the right bra? Choose one that is not only beautiful (and not just under clothes), but also comfortable, and also safe for your health? How do we usually choose a bra? We go to our size range, pick up a bunch of bras that are “oh! so cute!”, and then – to the fitting room. And what are we looking at in this fitting room? Don’t lie – we are looking at how sexy we look in this “oh! so cute!” As if we would leave the house in it, without covering up our erotically packed charms in a bra. And you need to choose this intimate item wisely, with feeling, with sense, with arrangement. Do you love yourself? Do you value your health? Do you care about your appearance? Then you simply need to know the secrets of intimate shopping.
Before going to the store
So as not to waste precious timeshopping, decide in advance what exactly you want to buy. If you need another erotic rag that can awaken the movement of thoughts and loins of the most infantile man, then this is one thing. If you need a comfortable and reliable wardrobe item that can correct the imperfect appearance of a woman's breasts under clothes, then this is a completely different matter. And yet, regardless of the purpose of the purchase, first take measurements. At least in order to save time and choose the right size range. Believe me, most women flatter themselves. Girls with small breasts grab bras of a clearly larger size from the display cases, and ladies with a voluminous bust try to squeeze into miniature bras. Girls! Apart from you, no one sees the tags on your bras! Therefore, be objective and take the correct measurements to know your real size, and not the one that seems real to you. Put on the most comfortable of all your bras and take just two measurements. First, measure the volume under the bust, and then the volume of the bust at its most prominent point. The first number will serve as a guide for choosing a bra by volume. It will be the first digits on the label of the bra that suits you. And in order to determine the size of the bra cups, calculate the difference between the two measurements taken. So, if the difference between the measurements is:
- 10-11 centimeters - zero breast size (AA);
- 12-13 centimeters - the first breast size (A)
- 13-15 centimeters - the second breast size (B);
- 15-17 centimeters-third breast size (C);
- 18-20 centimeters - the fourth breast size (D);
- 20-22 centimeters - the fifth breast size (DD).
True, this rule is universal only forbras that are not very large. For the fifth (and larger) breast size, the markings may differ among different manufacturers. For example, this size is designated E or DD (in America), and the sixth - F or DDD. Well, after taking measurements and finding out your true breast size, you can safely go to the store for the coveted update. And do not repeat the main mistake in choosing a bra, when the volume of the bra is too big for a woman, and the cup is too small for the breast.
In the fitting room
Here you are in the fitting room, holding it in your handshalf a dozen bras of the right size. Now you need to choose the most correct and most comfortable one. First, decide on the volume of the bra. Why do most women buy bras that are too big for them? Because they choose incorrectly. You need to buy a bra that fastens only on the outermost clasp, that is, its volume is “tight” for you. The fact is that the fabrics from which modern bras are sewn are elastic. Such fabrics tend to stretch, and accordingly, the bra becomes larger in volume. And if you buy a bra with some volume, you will not be able to make its stretched volume smaller, unless you re-sew the clasps. Now look at the straps, which (glory to modern manufacturers!) have an adjustable length. If the straps dig into your shoulders, the bra is too small for you, if the back of the bra creeps up - it is too big! But try adjusting the length of the straps. If the back drops under the shoulder blades, and the straps still press on the shoulders, this is not your bra. If the straps lie tightly, but without unnecessary pressure, on the shoulders, and the back of the bra is located strictly horizontally under the shoulder blades, everything is fine. If you can put a finger under the corset of the bra in a circle, this is your size. Now look at the cups. If the cup size is chosen correctly, its upper edge should not squeeze the chest, even if the cup is very open. The lower seam of the cup or the bone should tightly embrace the chest from below, or more precisely, not even the chest, but the "underbust". And the fabric on the bra cups should not wrinkle or gather in folds. Raise your arms up. Are your breasts "flowing" out of the bra? Bend down. Are your charms jumping out of it? This means that the bra cup size is also chosen correctly. Check the shape of the cups. Turn sideways to the mirror. If your breasts are larger than size zero and are not filled with silicone, then according to the law of gravity they will sag slightly (or not slightly). It's physics! And no matter what shape a woman's real breasts are, without a bra they will definitely "flow" down. So, a correctly selected bra will give them the desired position, when the lower part of the breast does not fall below the submammary line. Let's continue to look at your breasts in profile. The correct cup will lift your breasts so that their most protruding (in profile) part will be at the level of the middle of the arm between the elbow and the shoulder. By the way, such a chest height will definitely make you look slimmer, since women with low breasts seem more voluminous. Now put on a T-shirt or a T-shirt. If you have chosen the right bra of the right volume and the corresponding cup size, then no extra folds on your body should be visible under the T-shirt. Note - exactly extra. If you have folds and bulges on your body even without a bra, then with a bra on these folds should not become larger.
